What a disaster

[pmax3]

I never thought i would write this. I just came back from watching Slumdog Millionaire and was thoroughly dissappointed.

The movie has NO REDEEMING VALUE!

There is no plot (whatever there is is contrived and implausible), and the movie doesn't make any point apart from showing that a boy from the slums became a millionaire and got the girl.

Well, I found the movie well-made and the cinematography was good. Many of the actors (except Patel and Pinto) were ace, too - Madhur Mittal, in particular.

I, too, thought that the plot-holes and the WTF bits were legion, though.

I am also amazed that the film won Best Movie - it does not seem like a worthy successor to other Oscar-winning Best Movies like No Country for Old Men, and similar.

If you like, you can read my thoughts here and here.

I read your entries and I agree with what you have to say. There were so many unreal bits. And I admit I exaggerated a little when I said it has no redeeming value, heh o.O
